1 can chicken broth
1 white onion, diced
1 tablespoon dried chives
1/4 teaspoon celery salt
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
salt to taste
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

Dice potatoes, making some small and some large pieces. Add them to a large stew pot with the chicken broth, onion, chives, celery salt, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and enough hot water just to cover everything.
Boil potatoes uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the large pieces are cooked through.
